Why book a car with your flight
Picking up at the airport saves transfer time and lets you plan arrival and pick-up together. If your flight is delayed, tell the rental company your flight number when you book, since many hold reservations for late arrivals.
What you need
- A valid driver's license (and a passport and permit if renting abroad)
- A major credit card in the driver's name
- Meeting the minimum age; drivers under 25 may pay a surcharge
Insurance in plain terms
Before you buy extra coverage, check what your own auto policy and credit card already provide. Ask the rental counter what is included and what is optional.
Where it pairs well
Car rentals are especially useful at airports with limited rail service or destinations spread out over distance. See the ground-transport notes on airport guides such as Denver, Orlando and Honolulu.
